hammerva Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 (edited) Kenny Pickett is far from a top 10 QB but fuck he is clutch when he needs to be. Some great throws in that last drive Every time people think they can finally put a nail on the coffin on Mike Tomlin as a head coach for the Steelers for whatever stupid reason, he pulls off a run to a winning season and hell even a playoff berth. And not one of the 4 teams have to fuck up scenarios either. Edited January 2, 2023 by hammerva 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister TV Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Kenny Pickett gets shit on by the Ped State loving Pittsburgh sports media, but the kid will bring the Stillers another Super Bowl or two. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infinit Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 What about those Steelers??? Kenny looked like a seasoned vet. That last drive looked like one of Big Ben's comeback drives. Helluva win. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 (edited) Your Saturday Week 18 games: 4:30 PM Eastern - Chiefs at Raiders 8:15 PM Eastern - Titans at Jaguars Both of those games will be on ABC/ESPN. Remainder of Week 18 schedule coming tomorrow after Bills/Bengals, though I'm assuming this makes Lions/Packers the Sunday Night game.

Titans get 8 days rest going into a division-deciding game while the Jaguars get 5 days. Also, interesting to release the Chiefs assignment already when the Bills/Bengals game could end up being pretty important for them too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabe Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 (edited) The Lions' defense has been not-great for big chunks of the year but the future is bright: - Aidan Hutchinson is the first rookie DL in NFL history to have 3 INTs - James Houston set an NFL record with 8 sacks in his first 6 career games And Jared Goff really likes playing at Ford Field this year: 9 games, 2472 yards, 23 TD, 3 INT Edited January 2, 2023 by Tabe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now the planets must align and we have to beat the equally hated Browns next weekend and hope that the Jets kill Miami. I am confident that Buffalo will whoop up on the Pats. And if all that happens..... Steelers vs. Chiefs... at Arrowhead.... My stomach hurts already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only for the #1 seed - actual playoff spots will always take precedence... especially when you can put Green Bay in prime time And if the Bengals lose tonight - the Bengals/Ravens game next is for the AFC North so that is > than KC next week too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 (edited) The Texans and Bears will (likely) have the top two picks in the 2023 NFL Draft. If Houston loses at Indianapolis on Sunday, they get #1. Should they win and the Bears lose to Minnesota at home, Chicago will jump to #1 (and subsequently trade that pick for a metric assload of draft capital). There's a chance that the Bears could drop as low as 4 if they win on Sunday, with Arizona and Denver having a chance to leapfrog them.

RIPPA Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 BTW - tonight's Bills/Bengals game does not kick off until 8:30 pm (EST) as the NFL is delaying the start a little in deference to the Rose Bowl It is cute they think the Rose Bowl will be over by then 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolfan in NYC Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Also of note, Buffalo must win tonight to stay on pace for the #1 seed. I hate football, btw. Put Tua in a sensory deprivation tank until game time next Sunday, god damn it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dogwelder Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 So maybe I'm thinking too much about Ron Rivera's stupidity, but something doesn't add up. There was a report earlier that Howell would be starting next week if the Commanders were eliminated, so someone HAD to know it was possible after this weekend. Could Rivera have known but simply forgot during the postgame conference? Or did someone on the staff know but wanted to undermine Rivera and not tell him? (Knowing the Commanders, it's probably the latter...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 (edited) Lost a little in the Packers destroying the Vikings was Justin Jefferson becomes so frustrated that he almost nails a ref in the back of the head with his helmet. Luckily he saw it in coming in the last minute because oh boy that could have been bad https://twitter.com/PFF/status/1609681059418882050 Not sure why I can't get the tweet to embed like usual Edited January 2, 2023 by hammerva Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BloodyChamp Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 (edited) I almost hate that the Bills and Bengals play tonight. That’s going to be such a physical game and both of those quarterbacks have flirted with disaster all season. They have 2 more to go and this big game is 1 of them. The real and only difference in that Packers/Vikings game was the center. The Vikings could take them if they could go a sequence without a false start or illegal procedure. But of course all everybody is saying is that the Packers are going to win the SB. Every year. Somehow. That’s the prediction. Anyway I think it’s obvious that the NFC will come down to the 49ers and Eagles. Obviously Hurts has to come back and rejuvenate his team, but I think it’s a safe bet that that happens.

Now if the Seahawks win the Lions will know they have no path to the playoffs, which might effect effort and such. Also slightly unfair to the Packers if Seattle loses, because then Detroit will know that all they need is a tie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloodyChamp Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 I don’t think a Dan Campbell coached team is going to mail it in. An Aaron Rodgers coached team on the other hand...77-0 Lions if Seattle loses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 When presented with the opportunity to either a) show a game that's "win or go home" for both teams involved independent of the other 15 games on the schedule or b) kiss Aaron Rodgers' ass for three hours, the National Football League happily chose "b."

hammerva Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 (edited) I saw the highlight and I don't know if I have ever seen someone stand up after that kind of hit and then immediately fall back. If it is neck how did he even have the strength to bounce up like that. Was it heart related? Shit they administered CPR on Hamlin.
